So I'm guessing I should start from by saying a few things about myself, I've been a vaper for almost 2 years, and I'm mostly an MTL vaper, in this period of time I've never used mods with external batteries, I've only used regulated mods with integrated battery and just this year I had to change around 4 mods because of the failing charging port or battery ,so I got tiered of just wasting my money on them and decided to finally buy a regulated mod with external batteries,and I made the decision to get the VooPoo drag (weird name), the problem that I am having is that I can't make up my mind with chosing the right batteries for it ,I manly vape at around 20-25w and sometimes I might get to 30w with a 0,5 ohm coil, from the web searches that I've done I decided to get either the Sony VTC6 , the VTC5a(altho there are alot of fakes around and I don't really trust the shops in my country ) or the Samsung 25R . Maybe you guys, having a lot more experience than me, can recommend me a battery that I can use safely at the wattage that I vape at since another concern that I'm having is that it might not be safe to use those batteries at a lower power. Also, I'm sorry for my broken English, it's not my native language.

samsung 25r is a good battery cristy1
Thank you for your reply, to be honest, that's the one that I was leaning too also since I'm a bit paranoid to buy the Sony ones (because of high number of fakes in the market ) I was just unsure if its safe to use at the voltage that I want to use it (it might sound stupid but after the vaping mods exploding because of failing batteris I really don't want to take any chances ) and I really wanted to get a more experienced person to advise me with it .

Welcome to ecf

Any of the batteries you listed would work for you. If you can order from Fasttech that may be your best bet. Can you order supplies from China? That is where fasttech is located.
I used to order the samsung 25r from them until the US started restricting the mailing of them to us.

First, your “non native” English is better than a lot of native English speakers :thumb:

Here’s all the battery info you could ever need...

Mooch's blog | E-Cigarette Forum

Personally I use LG HB4s and HB6s from

LG HB4 18650 1500mAh 30A Battery

Welcome!
Thank you very much for the link ,so much information you Mooch could write a book on it :)) I'll have a look at it altho from my first glance there are a lot of technical stuff I have no idea about, so I'm guessing that I have a lot of reading to do to catch up :))

Yea most of my mods I got from Aliexpress,I never ordered from fasttech but I'm guessing it's kinda the same deal, but the problem is that our laws prohibit the shipping of batteries from countries outside the European Union.

    Welcome aboard Cristy :)

    Good luck with the battery hunt. Grab some plastic battery cases too - gives you a save way to store them. I've got pink ones ;)
